Girl-Prov : A Girl’s Night Out with Improv Comedy
Need a Fun Girl’s Night Out? Show your support for women in comedy.
GirlProv is an all-female improv show that showcases some of the funniest women in the area. Our ladies take your one-word suggestions and stories, then weave them into a series of hilarious scenes right in front of your eyes. Imagine a sorority house party vibe combined with a girl’s night out on the town. That’s the kind of fun you’d find hanging out with these amazing women.
Girlprov is a fan-favorite show at The Push Comedy Theater and will leave you in stitches. So spend an evening with us, and celebrate women in comedy every first Friday of the month. Smash the patriarchy, and leave with a smile on your face afterward.
Our show consists of two halves with a (roughly) 10-minute intermission. That’s plenty of time to refresh your beverage and take a bathroom break. It’s also plenty of time for the occasional dance party that breaks out in the aisle.

The Unusual Suspects: A Wild Murder Mystery
A Murder Mystery in Norfolk like no other!
Everyone in the room is a suspect in this wild murder mystery in Norfolk… EVEN YOU! The Unusual Suspects is a completely made-up murder mystery. Detective Brad McMurran walks you through the suspects… all pulled from the audience. No matter what twists the suspects throw at our great detective, he’s following the fun right to the very end. Watch in amazement as Brad pieces the puzzle back together, and leaves everyone doubled over with laughter. The show is completely improvised, so who knows what will happen next?
Each month, Brad plays a different detective inspired by the great sleuths of fiction. If you love mysteries, whodunnits, and good plot loop-hole, The Unusual Suspects is for you. Can you solve the murder before our crack investigator?
The Unusual Suspects is the brainchild of Brad McMurran (co-writer of Cuff Me: The 50 Shades of Grey Musical Parody, and co-owner of The Push Comedy Theater). The show regularly sells out at the Push Comedy Theater. It has been performed at parties, festivals, and corporate events. It was performed monthly at the South Point Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.
Pushing Dragons: An Improvised Dungeons and Dragons Adventure
Enter a Realm of Adventure, Laughter, and Epic Chaos!
Pushing Dragons isn’t your typical game night. It’s a full-blown stage spectacle where improv comedy collides with Dungeons & Dragons. Armed with stripped-down 5th Edition rules, the heroes of Push Comedy Theater dive headfirst into a one-of-a-kind quest, guided by chance, wit, and the mighty roll of a giant 20-sided die.
You’ll see battles, spells, and shenanigans come to life right on stage (and sometimes in the audience). Best of all, you help shape the story, rolling dice that decide the fate of our adventurers… and maybe even joining them in the quest.
Whether you’re a seasoned dungeon crawler or have never touched a character sheet, this show is for you.
And don’t just watch… come in your best cosplay and become part of the fantasy world. Wizards, rogues, barbarians, or bards… all are welcome on this epic, unpredictable journey.
Pushing Dragons is one of the hottest shows at the Push. Tickets are $15 in advance. Re-Roll Tokens are $10.
WHAT ARE PUSHING DRAGON RE-ROLL TOKENS? After an unfortunate TPK, we are introducing Re-Roll Tokens. For $10, you can purchase a re-roll token. This allows you to re-roll a die (for either the monster or player) during the show. Did your favorite character fail a saving throw or fail a crucial skill check? With a Pushing Dragons Re-Roll Token, you can change the course of the adventure.
Pushing Dragons Re-Roll Tokens can be purchased online as an add-on to your ticket purchase, or at the front desk when you check in. During the show, ask the Dungeon Master for a re-roll. The Dice Wenches will collect your token and hand you a die. Let fate do the rest!
